Guys
We can't get the pressure sphere undone (seriously tight). Heat will be a no no due the risk of melting other bits. Has anybody found a way of loosening these?
My brother in law has a 50k 2007 W211 avantgarde spec 320cdi estate. The ride has been getting quite hard, which I suspect is simply bush wear, but it may also be spheres. I would have thought at 8 years old both are probably in need of replacement. I don't think it is the shocks as nothing...
My 2001 W210 estate has been riding roughly for a while and I had a breif attempt to diagnose short while ago It seemed to Bump & Crash on the Passenger side Rear Wheel Initially I suspected a broken spring but on inspection the springs both sides seem fine . I Ruled out the spheres as I fitted...
Trying to sort all that will need to be done on my 190 2.5 16 suspension. The spheres were fitted just over three years ago - time for a change when everything else is being done?
The shocks look old, but aren't leaking. Records show the n/s/r shock changed in 2008, time to refresh all?
I,ve just started to change the rear spheres on my W210 estate today and both the 17mm pipes were totally solid into the spheres (applied penetrating oil for a few days before) so I have had to order 2 x new pipes which will be with me tomorrow.
My question is:
When the new spheres/pipes are...
Does anybody know size allen socket I'd need for the banjo bolts on the bottom of the SLS spheres on an s124?
I just watched a video on youtube that indicates its 13mm. Thought I'd check as that is about the only size I don't have in any of my socket sets.
My old 300TD has been very bouncy for a while, so I guess it's time to replace the "spheres".
I've accumulated the following parts, but I'm a bit worried as they look significantly different from the diagrams at Under Construction . I'm hoping this is just an artefact of the diagrams!
